Comment on Prioritizing your relationships… by jenniferpeck23 https://jenniferpeck23.com/2018/11/05/prioritizing-your-relationships/comment-page-1/#comment-289
Mon, 05 Nov 2018 18:21:55 +0000http://jenniferpeck23.com/?p=3564#comment-289I have reached a point in my life where I no longer can put myself in a position that is not reciprocated in whatever capacity. It’s sad but it’s become necessary to begin to distance myself so as to minimize the hurtful outcomes.

Mon, 05 Nov 2018 18:15:06 +0000http://jenniferpeck23.com/?p=3564#comment-288This unfortunately doesn’t leave me with too any options. Which makes me sad to think about. Especially when I am willing to do things for others who won’t do the same for me.

Comment on Time to Share the Workload – Hello Mr. Mom by mrsmotherdirt https://jenniferpeck23.com/2018/10/22/time-to-share-the-workload-hello-mr-mom/comment-page-1/#comment-286
Tue, 23 Oct 2018 17:21:09 +0000http://jenniferpeck23.com/?p=3555#comment-286I have been there! I took care of our first child literally by. MY. SELF. My husband never even offered to change a diaper and then took offense when she was 2 and she didn’t want to be around him (she would cry and say “NO! I want mommy”). Moving ahead to this summer, my husband actually took some ‘paternity leave’ and was home with our 4 month old while I was in the office 2 days a week. Boy have things changed!!!! Now my husband has some empathy for me and offers to help out a lot. I hope you get the change in perspective you are hoping for as well!

Good luck mama, I hope they choke on peanuts too 😉

Mon, 24 Sep 2018 11:58:37 +0000http://jenniferpeck23.com/?p=3551#comment-282I like when they ask you what you would like (activity, food anything) and then you answer and they say “Oh, why don’t we do *** instead?”

For example Saturday night DH asked what I wanted to watch (I really didn’t want to watch TV actually) but I said “OITNB” and he said “Well I was thinking ‘Deadpool'”

Well…. then why did you even ask?

This seriously happens ALL OF THE TIME.

I did enjoy reading your post though. Working mother/wifes really have a lot on our plate because of our ‘expected duties’.
